No notes but consistent w my last entry in ‘22; it’s a pretty Ribero Del Duero that struck a balance between power & finesse, more on the latter. One of Asimovs 20 under 20. — 2 years ago

A really wonderful Ribero del Duero. Full body as expected. I had the 2014 in 2021. — 5 years ago
I may have gotten the vintage wrong but what a beautiful Portuguese surprise-started off like a lighter hybrid beast of Ribero & Rioja. Morphs into its own creature, red fruits & plenty of depth, I taste barrel aging ( it may have been a 2010). All out balance. Impressive, 32$. — 6 years ago
Cherry and French oak on the nose. High acidity and tannins, with more dark fruits and oak on the palate. A terrific wine for the price. Reminds me of a tame Ribero del Duero. — 7 years ago
I had the 2014 in 2022. Full body and elegance. From a winery right at the border to Ribero del Duero. — 4 years ago
Great value! Can’t get enough of this 2017 vintage in Ribera and Rioja when is well made. A fresh, rainy year. Expressive nose of blackcurrant, cherries, a hint of well handled oak, good length. Not too complex (sort of entry level to the winery, which encourages you to the higher level) but once again great value — 5 years ago
Berries boxed in cedar - I could sniff this all day.
Alas, I want more - medium bodied, an incredible harmony of bold red berry fruit, Himalayan salt, cedar tannins and interesting orange zest at the very, last whisper of the wines embrace. Glad I let this set for a couple of years. Great producer, wonderful area, the Ribero del Duero..

What a nice, more modern approach to 100% Tempranillo in Ribero del Duero. Clean, medium intensity red and black berries, forrest floor, floral (violet and rose). Less fruit on the palate, starts fresh then opens to more herby components (dried to tobacco, licorice root), slight cocoa. Medium acidity, round country textured tannins that slide down nicely. 30% American , 70% French oak., A more robust expression of this grape. — 7 years ago

Among the best that Ribero del Duero offers. Benefits from a generous decant for a wonderful waft in the glass — 2 years ago
